Naming Technique of the Night

He and Xu Yicheng were playing two roles.

After controlling Xu Yicheng, Qing Chen specifically had this puppet stab people in the spleen.

Apart from the old fellows in Taboo Land 002, apart from Uncle Li Dong, and apart from Ding Dong, no one else knew he possessed the Taboo puppet ACE-019; in the rainy night, no one could see the thread between him and Xu Yicheng.

Thus, everyone treated Xu Yicheng as him, while he himself played another unknown Transcendent.

In this way, although "Qing Chen" killed decisively, he was still regarded as an Ordinary Person not worth cautious attention.

The one worth caution was the other unidentified Transcendent.

No one knew who this unknown Transcendent was, nor did they associate him with the Knight.

In this battle, Qing Chen did not use fallen leaves as weapons, specifically to avoid associations with the Autumn Leaf Knife. Stay updated through empire

There are many people in this world who use playing cards, but only Knights are qualified to use fallen leaves since, after all, playing cards are at least sturdy, whereas leaves shatter upon touch.

Suddenly, Qing Chen felt that Knight Vital Energy was indeed very useful; playing cards infused with True Qi cut through the enemy's body as if slicing through tofu.

The only downside was that he still had too little True Qi in his body, and it ran out after a while.

Of course, this wasn't a flaw of the True Qi, but of himself.

The significance of tonight's battle for Qing Chen was that he had added another layer of firewall for himself.

The outside world was so dangerous, how could one or two firewalls be enough? Naturally, he had to find an opportunity to upgrade his firewall version.

Another gain might be to fully win over Liu Dezhu's loyalty.

At this moment, Qing Chen and Xu Yicheng had just taken Liu Dezhu to the hospital entrance.

Xu Yicheng began to speak, "Hurry inside, your mother's injuries are serious. The boss asked me to tell you to wait until your mother's condition improves before discussing everything else."

"Thank you, thank you. Please convey to the boss that my life, Liu Dezhu's, is his from here on out!" Liu Dezhu said, then, carrying his mother, ran inside, "Doctor! Where is the doctor? My mother has fallen and hit her head, please save her!"

Seeing Liu Dezhu safely arriving at the hospital and more Kunlun members coming from behind, the two figures cloaked in raincoats walked back into the dark night.

Liu Youcai anxiously asked, "You two… heroes! Where are you headed?"

Xu Yicheng turned around and said, "Tonight's business is not yet finished."

Yes, it was not finished, because those who moved tonight weren't just those wanting to kill Liu Dezhu.

Qing Chen, having made a big detour with Xu Yicheng, arrived outside the west gate of Xinglong Residential Area, removed the raincoat from the other's body, untied the transparent silk thread from his hands, and then directly swiped at the other's neck with a playing card.

Only at this moment did this puppet truly die.

Qing Chen breathed a slight sigh of relief, picked up the raincoat, and planned to find a place to destroy it.

The raincoat on Xu Yicheng could not be left behind, because he had just manipulated the other to shoot through the raincoat, and the bullet holes left behind could be recognized, so he had to take it far away to burn it.

Thinking of a clue he had previously found, Qing Chen got up and ran to a certain path north.

…

…

In a dark street.

A group of six people was hiding in a small alley, silently leaning against the wall next to them, waiting for something.

At that moment, footsteps came from outside the alley, and everyone's expression sharpened as they all straightened up.

One person appeared at the alley's entrance and said, "Kunlun has begun battling those assassins. If we are to steal the information, now is the time."

Someone glanced at their smartphone, sent a message, "Kunlun is too distracted to pay attention, may we proceed with the mission?"

An unknown number replied, "Proceed."

The six people emerged from the alley and joined up with the person at the entrance, heading toward the planned direction.

The heavy rain gradually subsided; someone on the road whispered, "What information does the Li Family actually want us to steal?"

"Don't know, just steal it."

"Do you think the Li Family will keep their promises after we complete the mission?"

"At least it will allow us to become stronger," someone replied. "The stronger we are, the greater their influence over the Outer World will be."

"Is this really okay, what we're doing? Could it harm others? I suspect the Li Family wants us to steal registration information, and if that falls into the hands of the Inner World consortium, many Time Travelers will suffer."

"So many Time Travelers have already sought protection; we are just aboard the Li Family's ship. Do you think people like Liu Dezhu, King of Long-lasting Dye, Cloud Mortal are genuinely gifted? They just reincarnated well in the Inner World."

At this moment, the Li Family had not yet finished training and brainwashing these Time Travelers, so they hadn't disclosed everything to them yet.

Their task was simply to insert a small device into a computer in a police station's administrative hall and nothing more.

Among the controlled three hundred people, not everyone was cooperative; most did not want to become spies for the Inner World.

The seven at hand, however, had actively sought cooperation.

"After we complete the mission, will the Li Family discard us like used tools?" someone asked.

Someone impatiently said, "Every time we go through, our lives are in the Li Family's hands. You ask me if they will discard us like used tools? Even if you don't cooperate, can you still save your own life?"

"Our fate is in the hands of others, the Li Family are the butchers, and we are the fish on the chopping block; there are no other roads to choose."
